Literature from other fellowships

There is much literature on addiction. Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous have led many millions of people to recovery from this disorder. We value the literature of these and other fellowships. Our members are encouraged to read GAA literature, for information specific to gaming addiction and the suggestions for recovery that have been approved by our members. But we also encourage the use of other recovery literature. From the beginning, we have found that only addicts really understand addicts, and recovering addicts can truly help show others the way to recovery, simply by sharing their own experience, strength and hope. GAA groups sometimes read aloud recovery literature at their meetings.

Some recovery literature that has been helpful to our members includes these titles. NOTE: If you do not hold monotheistic beliefs, please be aware that many books advocate devotion to the male deity God as the main source of higher power. See the adaptations below or search online for “secular recovery” literature to find books that are written for a wider audience.
